Rare Rayman Pictures

I haven't actually tried to run the prototype, but it seems there are differences in the level files and texture files. Both seem to have their objects stored in a different order, at least. The music files are the exact same.

Considering the prototype was built on February 3rd and the final version on February 21st, I don't think the differences will actually be visible during gameplay, but who knows. Could be worth checking out, if people haven't already done so in the past.

No differences aside from menu differences as far as I could see when I ran it.

Given the large amount of pages that this thread has, we should get multiple members to help compile and compare what images this thread has and what is on RayWiki. It'll be effective if we split the thread between members, and then compile a final list between ourselves at the end.

Did we ever end up doing something with this? If not, I feel like we should do it ASAP since already some of the sites these images originally appeared on are obsolete.

Master · Feb 14, 2018

I've spouted that idea a few times, if memory serves. I think I did compile a list a few years ago, but it's probably in dire need of a proper update.

Either ways, talk is cheap. I gave that suggestion when activity was more substantial, and nothing came of it then. Unless you're willing to take charge and run through the whole thread, I honestly don't see it being done now either.

Well, I did recently start to gain more free time for my own things, so I may just end up doing it myself, that's of course unless anybody else also wants to volunteer.

I think a couple of these have been posted, but take a gander at http://www.nintendo64ever.com/Photos-Jeu-Nintendo-64,288,Rayman-2-The-Great-Escape,1.html

That "Rayman, not Ray" marketing thing was so dumb

I hope the model for Ray was at least paid well.

Original Character · Feb 15, 2018

Yeah it actually kind of started to make me feel bad for Ray.
I'm actually kind of surprised they chose "Ray" and not "Raymond" because I think that's a more likely error, unless Ubisoft had something against people calling Rayman "Ray" for short

The water area seems new? Never seen that before.

Master · Feb 17, 2018

Hmm, it reminds me of the hidden Fairy Glade area, though the water isn't right for it.

Harpic fraîcheur · Feb 17, 2018

It's for sure a beta version of this Fairy Glade area. What else could this pic be?

Ray502 · Feb 17, 2018

Could be an early look of the Walk of Power, specifically where Rayman jumps on the lily pads.

Harpic fraîcheur · Feb 17, 2018

Oh yeah, sounds right to me! This area didn't even come to my mind.

Has anybody got that magazine cover of Rayman with Pamela Anderson? Because that would be brilliant.

Greeness · Feb 17, 2018

If we're on the topic of rare photos again, I've gathered in this drive folder all the rare media I was able to find in the first 40 pages of the thread, in order to later add everything to the wiki: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1q344vHomZOuQZ6WgZV_xP7G6JsxNJMuc?usp=sharing
feel free to already add some things to the wiki if you see it as necessary, I'll continue to update the folder during my free time.

It's in the folder for your viewing pleasure.

Original Character · Feb 17, 2018

Yes! Much appreciated!

Hmmm very nice, I always hated that some pictures got lost with time, I should have some screenshots from *My fair Lacmac* in my archives, they were posted by raygirl a longtime ago, and a lot of other stuff I'll probably add.

With this posted I would like to address something.
Everyone, please feel free to hit me with a DM if you have anything to share that was featured in previous posts, especially if it originated from Photobucket or Imageshack since these are the sites I was able to get the least amount of photos from.

It would also be nice if somebody could get me a higher quality version of this photo, since I know it was posted here at some point:

And lastly l also I did some extra digging and found this person's site, who apparently did work for Rayman 2, Rayman Revolution, Rayman RR1 and Tonic Trouble:
http://florent-sacre.blogspot.co.il...0+01:00&max-results=20&start=80&by-date=false
Theres some RRR1 concept art at the bottom of that page which I don't think had been seen before from my research(not sure if some of these were for R4), but I couldn't find anything else sadly.

Posted these on Tumblr before.

A Japanese magazine featuring cute artworks of the Rayman 2 characters and a better Rayman 3 cover for the magazine Play.
